Rattles/Vibration Noises in Dash

MKC Review, 11/17/2019
2018 Lincoln MKC Select 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
4 of 7 people found this review helpful

Would love my 2018 MKC Select, if not for the ongoing rattle/vibration noises in the dash, that the service department have been "unable to replicate" after having it serviced at the dealership twice for it. Disappointing to have live with this issue with a brand new, luxury vehicle and its made me lose confidence in the overall quality.

Likes: Styling and solid feel Dislikes: Whining noise coming from somewhere. Small cargo area. Push button gear changer. Terrible sound system. Bought a 2017 used and got rid of it after a few months.

Technology Turmoil - SYNC 3 Sadness (it's useless)

1) SYNC3. !! AN ABSOLUTE JOKE!! Considering the pressure auto manufacturers place on vendors to deliver on feature/function/price - We are trying to understand who is falling down on the job - (Lincoln or 3rd party) - ridiculous either way. To use navigation apps, etc. one must have an iPhone to use ApplePlay. Otherwise you are stuck using SYNC3. !!What an absolute joke!! Connectivity (compatible phones) is so limited, SYNC3 is useless. Technology users are left without app access - NO integrated navigation capability!! 2) Why would any vehicle of this supposed level not include HomeLink (integrated garage door opener system) on all models? -Technology Disappointment-

The worst Decision I have ever made in automobile

Since I got this pig, it has been nothing but issue. Electrical and handling. Too small for the family and loud road noise. Sunroof noisy to use. I could go on and on . not worth the money! There is a knocking that the dealership says is "normal". a leak in the a/c that leaks onto the feet of the passenger that they say they do not a warranty. Buy a Cadillac, they are much more reliable for the same price. This vehicle is the absolute worst one I have ever had. Will not purchase it again. I actually gave this piece of crap back to the bank and they didn't even want it !

Radio controls

I love, love, love my 2017 MKC! We were all set to purchase a Cadillac when it was time to trade my Buick Encore, which I adored, but it was too small. We decided to check out the Lincoln because I read that you get more for your money than a Cadillac. I just wish the radio controls were easier. Also, I wish I could use voice controls on phone, i.e., “Call Bob”, instead of dialing. I hate taking my eyes off the road to find the radio controls. That is my only complaint! Will be looking at the 2019 Nautilus soon!
